This template has one optional definable field, which permits the user to be specific in what needs to be cited. For instance, if the entire article needs to be cited, a user would enter:
{{unreferenced|article}}
Should a user wish to be more specific on which section of the article needs to be cited, then the user would enter in:
{{unreferenced|article's section called "Childhood"}}
